Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Week 2

I'm back again with another card for the Wednesday challenge this month. Before I get started, I'd like to share the story of how this guest design spot came to be. Back in November, I attended a palette-making party Heidi hosted at the Simon Says Stamp office. (I am fortunate enough to live a couple miles away from SSS!) The very lovely Lorraine Aquilina (Lols) was there also. We started chatting and really hit it off! Here is a picture of us with our handmade palettes!

And now ...

The theme is "cute" and we are featuring Wild Rose Studio. Here is my card:

I stamped the Bear Hugs stamp with Memento Ink onto some Copic Blending X Press It paper that I had die cut using Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles. I colored the image with Copic Markers and then blended some Tumbled Glass and Bundled Sage Distress Inks onto the top and bottom of the panel. I adhered it onto my card base, which I had covered in colorful patterned by from the Amy Tangerine Sketchbook 6 collection. Here are links to the products I used:

About Me

I am a devoted Christian and SAHM to two great kids. In my previous life, I did public relations for 10 years. Then I got married and became a mom. That was it. I wanted to be with my kids. I am so blessed to also have an awesome DH, too!
My interest in cards began in 2003 when my husband and I received a beautiful handmade wedding card. It felt so great to receive something custom made. I hope my cards bless others in the same way that wedding card blessed me and my husband. Enjoy!
